For those interested in the nuances of telling a good story, check out this week's series in the LA Times on an Orange County relationship gone bad. Perfect example of storytelling that gets you to lean in and find out what happened next. http://www.latimes.com/projects/la-me-dirty-john/

I felt like Timeless got a bit too cute integrating historical events. I understand it was the conceit, but to me the execution was off. Maybe it should've been a darker Netflix/Hulu/AZprime show instead.

I think that's a great point. I actually left a writers group too because all we ended of doing was talking about different ways to 'land' an agent or mngr. I am of the mind that's so secondary all we really should be talking about is how we can improv as writers.
